So we have just finished the briefing for the ling race to Brixham. Last nights dinner discussions was about a possible postponement but as the shipping forecast has only mentioned force 5-7, we're going ahead.
It is the solo OFFSHORE race club afterall as Mr Hurley mentioned.
It is going to be a tough sail upwind with the tide kicking up a bumpy sea. I don't envy the small guys, but this will be a race where looking after yourself will be important...
Yesterday was a dya of rest and I got out for a sail on Jeff's 35 ft cat. Nice to just sit back and be a pssenger for the day.
Start is at 11, must go remove the light wind headsail...

Nice one Paddy, good work to get on top. Hop you've found a way to keep the tunes pumping and the weather has been okay. Looking forward to the next update when it comes through.
